Connecting a Consumer Stereo Pre-amp RCA to a Nakamichi MR-1
Just use these adapters:http://www.amazon.com/Hosa-Cable-GPR101-Inch-Adaptor/dp/B000068O3S/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=146180...Once the adapters are installed, any regular interconnect cable will work. 
Best Rock Album of 2016
I agree with the new Sturgill Simpson album, very good.  I also like the new Ben Harper & The Innocent Criminals "Call It What It Is".A couple of others:Lissie-"My Wild West"Santana-"IV"I'm waiting patiently for new Beth Hart/Jeff Beck album. ...

I just saw a copy of the infamous "Black Album" going for $20,000! WOW indeed. 
Grado wood body vs. Grace 707 headshell?
Will they fit?  As far as fit is concerned, the Grado uses the standard 1/2" mount. The Grace 707 headshell uses the same, so no problem. 
how do you select a center channel to match when the company only makes monitor speakers?
I would try to see if you can buy a single Harbeth.  Maybe a smaller model within the same line...... It's unlikely another brand will be voiced similarly. ....Agreed

Basis 1400 TT...
if you decide you want the micrometer (invaluable for fine adjustment of VTA/SRA), it also is not offered on the Classic That's not true.  It's a 90 Pound option and includes the VTA lock.I would just opt for the Series 5, (which I did).  It's ... 
New Technics 1200
